Pasha, do your goats eat the acorns?
Thank you for the video. That was wonderful to see... and another good reason to follow the old saying "don't count your chickens before they hatch!"
No. I read someone in russian forum, like goats ate acorns, but my goats do not eat them. I gave one acorn to a goat, he chewed it a bit, and spat it out. Apparently, they are not tasty ))
My goats eat mostly leaves from trees and bushes, sometimes they trim the bark. And when we walk - they eat either bushes or tall grass. Very fond of eating wormwood, high dandelions, clover.
we usually walk once a day, but if I'm very busy - I just cut a big tree with leaves somewhere and bring it.
I also have a small plot for walking goats, but there is little interesting, goats almost ate everything. Therefore, I either bring trees with leaves that cut down under power lines, or we walk.
Once a day I give a little oats, where I mix the fodder chalk, because goats often butt and spoil the horns. When I bought them, they did not have very good horns. Now the horns are growing normal, but the ends of the horns have remained damage. I do not know how to fix it, everything I came up with - it bought a special feed salt with minerals and fodder chalk.
